Tensions are at an all-time high in tonight's season finale of The Originals!

"It seems to be the ongoing saga of this show doesn’t it? That these two brothers are perpetually at war with each one another," star Daniel Gillies tells ETonline of Elijah and Klaus' (Joseph Morgan) latest face-off.

With baby Hope's life in grave danger, time is running out for the family to come up with a plan of attack against Dahlia's (Claudia Black) wicked ways. We've got an epic sneak peek from tonight's adrenaline-pumping hour, and after watching it, it's clear that Elijah is beyond furious after Cami (Leah Pipes) spills a vital piece of information.

"I think that it's extremely difficult for Elijah to proceed after this," Gillies said of the scene above. "I think this information pertaining to Klaus and the strategy upon which he believes he can remove is done to necessitate an alliance between the brothers. Which, at this time, you can imagine Elijah is enormously reluctant to grant to Niklaus."

The star continued, "It feels like this is a fragmented time that they've chosen within which to have the show. The Originals does seem like this sort of end of days of this particular family."

The season two finale of The Originals airs tonight at 8 p.m. on The CW.
